Quotes from Jason Diamond

If you took every pop song to heart, you'd be a bleeding romantic with a crushed heart every five minutes.

You can always be writer. It's not so much a metamorphosis as it is finding what you want.

There are people who want to live and then the people who want to hold them down. I've tried to not be one of the latter my entire life.
